Share

Feeling brave, Victoria?

Whether you’re in search of your next great adventure or looking to cross “jumping off a tall building” off your bucket list, we’ve got you covered!

The Make-A-Wish Foundation is bringing its national ‘Rope for Hope’ campaign to Victoria for the second year in a row, allowing individuals and groups to experience rappelling down the 160 ft tall CIBC building once they raise $1,500 each for the foundation.

On Friday, May 24th, teams of bravehearts will be participating in the event after weeks of fundraising to achieve the targeted minimum $1,500 donation amount for the Make-A-Wish BC & Yukon Vancouver Island.

This year, Victoria Buzz will be participating in the fundraiser to send reporter Brishti Basu over the edge.

And we want one lucky follower to make the jump with her, without having to fundraise themselves.

Victoria Buzz's very own Brishti Basu is going to rappel down the iconic CIBC building right here in downtown Victoria to help fundraise for Make-A-Wish BC & Yukon

Here’s how to enter:

All donors will be entered to rappel down the CIBC building with reporter Brishti Basu who managed to make the jump last year.

The winner will be announced on Tuesday, May 21st!

There’ll also be an after party at Moxie’s Grill & Bar on Yates Street for every daredevil who ventures on this journey.

This year, the organization aims to raise $50,000 for the Make-A-Wish Foundation and have thus far reached over $17,600.
